...as Sir Boyle Roche would say, like the last rose of summer...

Disraeli, Benjamin (1831). The Young Duke.Boyle Roche
Herodotus is not more indisputably the father of history than is Sir Boyle Roche the father of Bulls. No doubt there were makers of bulls before his day, even as brave men lived before Agamemnon; but they are not remembered, and if their bulls have survived them they are credited to Sir Boyle by a posterity generously forgiving and forgetful of his famous indictment.
Boyle Roche
Roses are shining in Picardy
In the hush of the silver dew;
Roses are flowering in Picardy
But there's never a rose like you.
And the roses will die with the summer time
And our roads may be far apart,
But there's one rose that dies not in Picardy;
'Tis the rose that I keep in my heart.Fred Weatherly
All that happens is as usual and familiar as the rose in spring and the crop in summer.
Marcus Aurelius
'Tis the last rose of Summer,
Left blooming alone;
All her lovely companions
Are faded and gone.Thomas Moore
And mid-May’s eldest child,
The coming musk-rose, full of dewy wine,
The murmurous haunt of flies on summer eves.John Keats
